Hi, Really great app, thank you. My only comment would be that I find the button clicks a bit confusing and I accidentally hit stop during my swim today. The app itself works really well though. Thanks!

I decided to try the app before my snorkeling adventure. It kept randomly pausing during the swim.

I would have given a "great" rating if the unit of distance is both in yards and metre. I have to convert everytime. Not sure how accurate the GPS is. Otherwise, the app leorks good and exactly what I was looking for.

I didn't think I would be able to use my Vivoactive HR for open water. And then I found this app. So far, I really like it. I train 1-2km swims almost daily so this app will get lots of use. I haven't experienced any problems on my watch. The measurements for distance might be a bit out, but I simply check Google Maps for a straight line estimate and then I'll use the app simply as a progress report based on distances that I swim regularly and know of their length already.

Good app for the occasional swimmer. Have used in a local lake and also in the sea whilst abroad on holiday.

Really like this for open water swimming. Use it for triathlon training and competition with my Vivoactive HR2 . Quick GPS connection and stays ready to start for extended time which is great for long wait rolling starts. Only bit of critical feedback is that the distance measurement is quite optimistic.

It would be perfect if the "saving" part would be shown like a menu, and every option (to save, discard, back etc.) would stay longer on screen or until I press again the button.

I have Problems with this App, because on the Display the Distance is in yard. But the pool size is in meter. so the distance is not correctly calculated. I find no opton to chage this. There is although no possibility to set the lap distance for different laps.

Very good app for open water swimming. I used with Vivoactive 3 Music on sea and recorded all swimming data, plus heartbeat and temperature. The one button control works great. The only problem is that SWOLF is shown on the clock, but not in the connect IQ app.

The app is nice and records all the data you need for Swimming. Display and controls are easy too use. But... The app broke my vivoactive hr. Screen freezes while trying to safe a swim. Then endless bootloops.

Great app (using the beta on Vivoactive 3) and I got 3 suggestion to make it perfect - Enable screen lock when activity start - Add option to create a custom training and upload it on the watch when using it in lap mode. Might be just a list but to have it written somewhere so not to forget what is next - Enable HR zone display and alerts. That can be the HR zones created by the watch/Connect app or custom zones to be added through the settings. When I am doing a lap training in the pool for some cases itis really important to keep the pulse within a specified range.
Sorry, no statistics available yet.
